The Olympic Peninsula is across from Seattle and Puget Sound.
Washington's Olympic Peninsula is best known as the setting for Olympic National Park. However, the region is also renowned for historic logging towns, rain forests, whale watching, saltwater fishing and wildlife viewing. Most RV parks and services are on the northern portion of the peninsula, while the southern peninsula is more remote, with fewer people. Although the Olympic Peninsula can receive up to 140 inches of rain per year, many RV parks are open year round.
